People just don't care, many can't drive for shit, and many parents are total idiots.
I can't tell you the number of times at the drive-up window of the pharmacy that people roll up with kids in the car who are unbuckled. They're walking around, they're hopping all over the place- it drives me insane. And we're not talking about "the lane was full and we weren't moving, they were antsy, so I let them get up and stretch", no- we're talking about people pulling up straight from being on the road, and I can see them do it, with kids moving around unbuckled in the vehicle. (ps, i'm talking about 5, 6, 8, 10 year olds here, the littler ones...)
If it weren't for the fact that cops won't chase after them, and that I would get fired for calling the police on someone, i'd call the cops on every single one of them.
